A unique opportunity for higher education aiming to prepare future leaders of the community is coming to Pickaway County this fall.

Berger Hospital is teaming up with Ohio University in Athens to offer OU’s professional Master of Business Administration in Circleville.

“We’re constantly meeting to talk about what we might do to expand educational opportunities for the community,” Berger President Tim Colburn said. “Why an MBA program? Because health care is a business, and we need to make sure we’re building and developing future leaders.”

Berger already has a partnership with OU at its Chillicothe branch to train nurses in Circleville, and Colburn said the success of that program gave Berger an inroad for more educational offerings locally.

The program, which takes about 22 months to complete, consists of one evening a week of classroom activities held via video conference with instructors in Athens and a weekend course once every six weeks on the Athens campus.

OU has been offering the professional MBA through outreach programs for the last five years, according to Dr. Ed Yost, OU’s director of executive graduate education and development, and he said it’s been very successful preparing students for the business world.

“This program is aimed at working professionals to complete an MBA in a non-full time environment,” Yost said. “It’s designed for people that who maybe don’t have a business degree to give people a background to turn into a managerial career step.”

Yost said the course is delivered with more group projects rather than class work, and that was part of the appeal for Berger, according to Suzanne Welker, Berger’s human resources director.

“We’re excited about the synergy the group will have and think the teamwork will benefit the hospital and community,” Welker said. “Business management develops over time and we want to maximize skill development.”

Students in the program will learn about analytical decision making, which focuses on making good business decisions and professional development, including managing people and resources, teamwork and leadership, according to Yost.

He said the course also gives professionals the opportunity to meet people in other businesses and build on local networks.

The second golf outing to benefit Fairmont State University’s MBA program will be held next Sunday at White Day Golf Course.

Organizers Jeff Jacobs, Dan Everly and Terri Markle are hoping for a full field of 36 participants, compared to the 18 golfers at the first tournament.

“Our last one was on a football Saturday with WVU playing a home game, so I think we were as successful as we could hope with 18,” Jacobs said.

The format of the tournament is a two-person scramble. Registration starts at 7 a.m., with a shotgun start at 8 a.m.

Markle recommended registering early for the tournament at the course or by phoning Jacobs at 816-6370 or Everly at 838-3075.

Cost is $35 per golfer, which includes 18 holes of golf, cart and sandwiches provided by East Side Subway. Mulligans are also available to purchase.

“We are very pleased with the results to date,” Jacobs said. “We locked down quite a few sponsors and some great prizes as well.”

Some of those prizes include a new driver from Allegheny Power and putter from Pets Plus. Golf USA has offered some door prizes as well as two rounds of simulation golf, free rounds of golf at White Day and various other golf supplies.

Each player will also receive a gift bag of accessories for the tournament.

“It’s running smoothly,” Jacobs said. “We were a little nervous about the sponsors, but it looks like we will get what we needed.”

The tournament is more than just a fundraiser.

It is also the MBA program’s project management course, and Jacobs said they hope the program can continue after he graduates this year.

“We are compiling some documentation for future students to keep this up,” he said. “Eventually we’d like to grow it into something a little larger, but White Day and Marty Morgan have been a big help to us.”

The school is also looking to continue fundraising in the future for the MBA program, Jacobs and Markle said.

That means the golf outing could become a permanent fixture of the summer season.

“The fact that we got enough sponsors will help future golf outings for the program,” Jacobs said.
